Ever felt like your emotions are about to boil over, spilling into every aspect of your life? Kijuan compares it to a pot of boiling water.
In this conversation, Kijuan talks about the importance of emotional honestyâbeing truthful about where you are and what youâre feeling. By speaking the truth and addressing whatâs really going on, we start releasing the pressure, restoring emotional balance, and raising our vibration.
It's time to let go of limiting beliefs and start the healing process by being real with yourself and others.
Facing unimaginable challenges, Kijuan didnât turn away from his faithâhe questioned it. "Why would you do this to me?" he asked, only to receive a powerful response: âI test what I make.â
This conversation with God reshaped Kijuanâs entire outlook on life and hardship. It wasnât just a testâit was a proving ground. A test to see how strong he truly was.
Today, Kijuan uses his story of faith, resilience, and transformation to inspire others. Heâs more than a motivational speakerâheâs a living example that faith, no matter how shaken, can guide you through your toughest battles.
Kijuan Amey stresses the critical importance of speaking out when you're struggling. Internalising pain can lead to a boiling point, where everything overflows. But by talking, you create space for healing and connection.
Sharing your thoughts and emotions is a powerful tool for resilience and survival.
Pride can be the biggest roadblock to real healing.
Kijuan Amey reflects on how growing up in the inner cityâand later serving in the militaryâshaped his understanding of pride, resilience, and vulnerability. He shares how, especially in military culture, the stigma around mental health runs deep: "As soon as you step foot through that door, people look at you differently." But Kijuan breaks that silence, showing that true strength is in seeking supportânot suffering alone.
Kijuan Amey dismantles the dangerous myth of "doing it all by yourself."
His advice? If someone claims they made it through life completely aloneârun the other way. Kijuan believes healing is a team effort. Therapy, connection, and vulnerability arenât signs of weaknessâtheyâre the foundation of real resilience.
If youâre struggling mentally or emotionally, donât isolate yourself. Find your team. Find your strength.
True strength isn't doing it aloneâit's knowing when to reach out.
Kijuan Amey sets the record straight about the myth of âdoing it all by yourself"" and how behind every success story is a team of supporters, mentors, therapists, and guides.
After surviving unimaginable trauma, Kijuan shares how he had to drop the pride and embrace every kind of helpânot just for his body but also the mind and spirit.
After surviving a life-changing accident and waking up to a world without sight, Kijuan had to rebuild not just his body, but his entire identity. In this podcast, Kijuan Amey breaks down resilience beyond buzzwordsâsharing his lived experience of bouncing back from physical, mental, and emotional devastation.
Tune in for a real, unfiltered look at what it takes to rise, and why true resilience touches every corner of our beingâbody, mind, and spirit.
"How do we navigate the inevitable changes our bodies go through, especially when it feels like nothing is quite the same?
In this episode, Jane Vandermeer talks about the challenges women face when their bodies shiftâwhether due to age, lifestyle changes, or natural transitions. She encourages women to seek support and learn new ways to feel aligned with their evolving bodies.
What if the words you repeat to yourself are quietly shaping your entire life?
Jane Vandermeer shares how the simple shift from ""I have no time"" to ""I have all the time in the world"" can radically reshape your realityâturning stress into spaciousness, and reactivity into intentional power.
By tuning into your self-talk and aligning your outer life with an abundant inner mindset, you begin to show up differently⌠not only in your wardrobe, but in your work, relationships, and leadership.
While traditional styling stops at âwhat looks good,â Jane Vandermeerâs approach goes deeper. She helps women reconnect with their identity, confidence, and purpose through clothing that reflects who they truly are.
Looking back, she may not have had the wordsâbut the knowing was always there. Now, with decades of experience, sheâs helping others access the kind of transformation that isnât just about changing your outfit⌠itâs about changing your life.

In 2009 Amanda Campbell suffered a major MS attack that left her paralysed and was given a 50% chance of ever walking again. Unprepared to accept this as her fate, Amanda learned to focus on what she wanted instead of what she was scared of. With a lot of determination and the help of her doctors and a Kinesiologist, within six weeks, she stunned us all by not only walking, but running.
This prompted her to swap a fast-paced career in the fashion industry to go back to study to enable her to understand how she achieved her recovery.
